Chick Corea & the Vigil

Expect acoustic and electric music, including the sound of Corea’s legendary Fender Rhodes. 7:30 and 9:30 p.m. Thursday-May 5 at Dimitriou’s Jazz Alley, 2033 Sixth Ave., Seattle; $40 (206-441-9729 or www.jazzalley.com).

Cafe Nordo, the outfit that brings you dinner theater with a twist, presents a new show it’s billing as “five craft cocktails, four seasonal courses and one man’s last meal.” It’s a Western — of a sort. It opens Thursday and runs through June 16 at The Kitchen by Delicatus in Pioneer Square, 309 First Ave. S., Seattle; $60-$70, ages 21-plus (800-838-3006 or www.brownpapertickets.com).

Mike Daisey

The monologuist who made news last year with a controversial set of interviews on “This American Life” returns to Seattle with the West Coast premiere of two pieces, “American Utopias” and “F***ing F***ing F***ing Ayn Rand,” performed on separate nights. As evidenced by the titles, Daisey’s work is not for the prudish. May 1-11, Leo K. Theatre, Seattle Repertory Theatre, Seattle Center; $12-$25 (206-443-2222 or www.seattlerep.org).
